One of our students, Alexandra from Blanche Ely High, didn’t expect the cards to have such a great impact on the recipients.

When she handed a card to a resident, their response touched her:
“I don’t usually get many visitors or people who go out of their way to bring me such beautiful cards. I really appreciate what you have all done.”

Just the students‘ small act of service of simply showing up, caused many of the residents to light up.

Once they finished handing out cards, the students asked, “When can we come again?”

Firewallstudents and staff smile with Bernadette, a residential coordinator, and Blake Silverstrom, Executive Director of Heart2Heart Outreach of South Florida.

For our 5th Annual Serve-A-Thon on April 28th, we will partner with Heart2Heart Senior Outreach to bring more joy to these care centers. We also plan on serving again at Hope South Florida and Feeding South Florida to allow our students the opportunity to give back.
